Summary

This product contains several organic ingredients such as corn tortillas, Monterey Jack cheese, and vegetables, which contribute positively to its nutritional profile. However, the presence of high oleic safflower and/or sunflower oil, which are considered seed oils, and the ultra-processed nature of the product limit its healthiness. Despite having only one additive, the overall processing level and the use of seed oils prevent a higher score.
